HEATER CONTROLLER
.
The features of the heater controller described below
have been designed for better appearance, easier
operation, and enhanced visibility.
•Each dial for the air outlet switching, fan volume
control, and temperature adjustment has been
enlarged to enhance operability.
•Ring lights have been adopted to inside the dials
to enhance appearance during nighttime. -
cles with automatic A/C>
•AUTO and OFF positions of the fan volume con-
trol dial have been exchenged with one another.
This change prevents the dial to pass the AUTO
position when the fan volume control is turned
OFF, and eliminates the necessity of manual
reselection when switching the inside/outside air
selection manually, thus enhancing the operabil
-
ity.
•When the air outlet switching dial and fan volume
control dial are turned to the AUTO position, the
A/C switch has been made to automatically turn
ON to enhance convenience. (Using the custom
-
ize function, this function can be cancelled. Refer
to
P.55-7.)

CONTROL
.
FORCED DEF CONTROL
When air outlet position is switched to DEF, A/C is
automatically turned ON, and outside/inside air
selection damper is set to the fresh air position to
quickly defrost the windshield screen.
.
MAX A/C CONTROL
When the temperature adjustment knob is turned to
the maximum A/C position with the blower knob at
position other than OFF, the following controls are
made by the A/C-ECU.
NOTE: "*" Manual operation is disabled during max
A/C control.
.
MAX COOL, MAX HOT CONTROL

When the set temperature is at 18.0 °C <61°F>
(MAX COOL) or at 32.0
°C <89°F> (MAX HOT) with
the air outlet and air volume at the AUTO positions,
the following controls are made automatically by the
A/C-ECU.
NOTE: "*" indicates that when the automatic control
is not cancelled using the customise function, the
manual operation is disabled.
.
REAR WINDOW DEFOGGER TIMER
CONTROL
In order to prevent battery consumption, the defog-
ger is automatically turned OFF, 20 minutes after it is
turned ON.
.
IDLE-UP CONTROL
A/C-ECU and the engine ECU communicate with
each other through the CAN communication. The
idle-up speed of the engine is controlled in two steps
depending on the A/C load to secure the air cooling
performance during summer and to enhance fuel
economy in seasons with moderate temperature.
.
DETECTION CONTROL FOR
REFRIGERANT LEAKS
A/C-ECU determines if the refrigerant amount is less
than specified or refrigerant pressure is abnormal by
using the ambient temperature (ambient temperature
sensor to measure refrigerant inflation rate) and
refrigerant pressure (measured by the A/C pressure
sensor). When refrigerant amount or refrigerant pres
-
sure is judged abnormal, the compressor is cut-off to
protect the A/C system.
NOTE: When abnormality occurs, the A/C indicator
flashes.
.
PROTECTION CONTROL AT AIR BAG
DEPLOYMENT (DURING COLLISION)
When the air bag deployment is detected, the A/C
system is stopped.
.
